This course offers a unique chance to watch a web designer create five different websites from scratch, complete with commentary and a helpful e-book to guide your journey.
Watch five homepages get created, from start to finish
Getting started as a designer is intimidating if you’ve never done it before. Especially if you’re learning at home by yourself. Even if you know what you should be doing, sometimes you just need to see how something in as much detail as possible. If you don’t have the time or money to go to design school you can’t be in the classroom to see how the teachers do it. You have no idea where to start, so you get frustrated and do nothing.
What if you could sit behind a web designer for a week and watch them at work? And not just see part of the project, but watch them from start to finish. Along the way they would do some serious hand holding by explaining what they were doing and why. And what if they did this for a variety of projects, in different styles? For example on Monday you watched them do a website for a bank. Then on Tuesday they designed a clothing site. And so on. See the design process unfold before your eyes would help you better understand the design concepts you read about in books.
In these five videos I do just that. I design five sites from start to finish. You see everything from the blank Photoshop document to the finished site. Each recording is sped up about 4x so that you see each site come to life in about an hour. During that hour I talk about what I’m doing on screen and my thinking behind each design choice. The original non-sped up videos are included too if you want to view how I did something in real-time.
Also included is my 139 page e-book that explains the concepts in the video. I recommend students read the book first, then watch the videos.
At the end of this course, students will be able to read a creative brief

Mason is a freelance graphic designer who has spent the past ten years working at such companies as TBWA/CHIAT/DAY, Deutsche, DNA Studio, Phenomenon, and many others. He specializes in interactive but he loves all aspects of design. He's also interested in the ways people learn. He strives to make his material as clear and concise as possible.
Not actually. I am not that proficient in Photoshop and would like to see better some tricks but unfortunately during the video could not catch some actions.
Esta buena la idea de ver a un diseñador trabajar, pero me pareció muy lento y con pocos comentarios sobre lo que iba haciendo o por qué tomaba esas explicaciones.
Well done
thank you for the fruitful learning you have shared with us. I had fun learning
Video was so faster that is quiet difficult to understand
I liked how he uses the client's brief and turned it into a visually appealing webpage. Good to learn the techniques. It would be good if detailed.
Great course for someone that already knows fundamental concepts of UI and is looking for how to start a project from start to finish. Great job!
It was quite long to search or make some images. also I've expected you to build up web pages by coding, however it was not....
He straight started the course i didn't know what was going to happen next.

Hello I love this tutorial, and its pretty impressive. however, the photoshop skill you have demonstrated is too advance, I can't seem to catch up, overall I love it a lot.
